He went on to say that our researchers are striving day and night to find the key to unlock the mystery of cancer, "On an individual basis," said Rev. Beukema, "the needs and comforts of the cancer patient have top priority with the Society, Our volunteers are constantly active in our Service to Patients program, not only by ministering to patients' physical and financial needs—butby bringing the gift of cheer and hope." Rev. Beukema remarked that the work of the Canadian Cancer Society would not be possible without the generous support of the Canadian public, "When our voluntedr canvasser calls, your donation will he helping science to win out against cancer," he said. live TB germs in their sputum, they can spread the disease just by coughing or sneezing, And anyone—monkey or man—may have active disease with no symptoms at all, Some of the common symptoms of TB—when there are any—are coughing a lot, feeling tired all the time, spitting blood, and losing weight. Any one or all of the symptoms can mean TB. n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n Mu s ic Continued .from Page 1 classes in the high schools at the present time. "The problem in beginning an art course as seen by the high schools is that they have no room suitably set up and the difficulty of getting a teacher to teach art part-tiree and Some other subject," said Talbot, A resource centre in the teaching of music and art, said Charles IViountford of F. E. Madill SS in Wingham, is vital. A resource centre, he said, would contain books, magazines, clippings, phonograph records, filmstrips, slides, reproductions of works of art, etc, and should be well located within the school and made known to the students. "The committee is optimistic that resource centre requirements will be met in Huron County without serious difficulties," said Mountford. Clayton Cober of Howick Central P.S, outlined the field trips taken by the committee in preparing its report and Mrs. Bessie Head, a speech therapist from the board office, detailed the recommendations; 1. That the board approve the necessary alterations and additional instruments to bring the present room and equipment up to standards for the instrumental music course planned for GDCI this fall; 2. That the students should be exposed to musical, dramatic and art presentations by bands and choirs made up of performers of student age level beginning in September, 1972; 3. That when hiring teachers, principals be encouraged to hire teachers with qualifications in the Arts so that the present policy of itinerant teachers can be phased out; 4, That resource centres forthe Arts be set up in the county and that budgets be increased accordingly for library and audio-visual Mrs. Betty Cardno, supervisor of the Home Care Program in Huron County, appeared before county council Friday afternoon in Goderich to explain the service and to answer questions. Mrs. Cardno told councillors that even though Home Care is a county program, it is presently in service in Seaforth, Clinton and Goderich areas of the county only, Homemakers, Mrs. Cardno pointed out, are not immediately available in the Exeter and Wingham areas. She hopes that some women from these districts will enroll for the certified homemaking courses being offered through Huron's branch of Conestoga College at Clinton, so that the required personnel will be available throughout the entire county of Huron. The Home Care Plan is designed to free hospital beds in Huron County. It makes it possible for patients to leave hospital early or, in some cases, it--permits them to remain at home without ever entering hospital at all. A patient must be recommended for the Home Care plan by the family physician. To be eligible, the patient must require some nursing or physiotherapy care which, if the plan was unavailable, would necessitate hospitalization. Homemaking services, Mrs. Cardno stressed, was not available through the Home Care program by itself, "I am not running a homemaker service," commented Mrs. Cardno, "but I do have a list Supplies with persons trained in audio-vistial aide to work with them; 5. That.the barn on GDCI property adjacent to the school be altered fora theatre arts program; 6. That the board adopt a central audio- visual System; 7, That the board initiate the possibilities pf co-operating with Huron County Council in the building of an Arts Centre in Huron. In the discussion during the presentation, the chairman of the board, Robert M. Elliott, asked the teachers if they would agree that a school needs a "spark-plug" for any arts course to be offered, "Somebody to ignite the spirit that's there," explained Elliott. "If it is the staff's fault," answered Warren Robinson, "then it goes back one step further, to the people who hired that staff." Robinson maintained that there is presently a "rosy hiring picture" and persons in charge of hiring should be encouraged to be on the lookout for persons with qualifications in the Arts as well as other subjects. "What is it that the board is not doing that is setting the arts program back in Huron County?" asked Elliott. Robinson said it is better to be hated than to be ignored, Mrs, Hoad noted that since the arts have always been taught in Huron as extra- curricular subjects, it is difficult to inspire interest among staff members to teach it—or to attract qualified persons. Bruce Shaw of South Huron DHS reminded the board that courses often aren't initiated because of the lack of facilities. He pointed out that theatre art programs, for instance, need a place to work. Music, he continued, needs a special ;room. Art. too, he said, requires of homemakers who are available for work in the county." Home Care is funded 100 per cent by the provincial government, All costs to the patient approved for the Home Care program, will be paid by the province just as though lie or she was in hospital. Nurses supplied by the Victoria Order of Nurses will be paid to visit the home and cars for the patient; physiotherapists, speech therapists, etc. when required, will also go directly to the patient's home at no cost to the recipient of the service; homemakers, when necessary, will be provided; all drugs and dressings will be supplied; and ih the event that ambulance service is required for transportation to and from the hospital, this too, is paid for by the province. However, since the Home Care plan does not operate on a 24-hour a day basis, the co- operation and support of the family is urgently solicited. There is;also a 30 ,day limit on the service: In some cases, this can be extended to 60 days and in the case of cancer patients, the service will continue as long as it is required. At present in Huron County, about 20 patients a month are benefiting from the service. "It is not a high number," observed Dr. Frank Mills, Acting Medical Officer of Health, "but it is a very important number when we facilities Which often do not exist in the schools, Robinson complained that it is difficult to find free time in the gyin to practice a play for instance, or rehearse a band. "We're preparing for a regional festival at Goderich April 8," said Robinson, "and our gym is rented for several days this weekend. Often we have to fight with sporting events for time in the gym," "We call that lack of communications," observed Elliott, "We're still job orientated in Huron County," said D. J. Cochrane, director of education for Huron. "We think if the course doesn't help a student toward employment, it is not useful." "How many employers ask if the student has done well in physical education?" said Robinson, pointing out that physical education has long been stressed as an important subject in high school. Several members of the committee also noted that physical education has been "strongly suggested" to many students who might have preferred to select music or art as one of their subjects. Speaking about his choir, Lorne Dotterer of Mitchell, told the meeting that at Mitchell high school there is a waiting list of almost 100 students who would like to join his choir, He said he sees 246 students a day in the music course he teaches at Mitchell. "Choral music is not very expensive," said Dotterer. "My budget is $450. And the town is behind the choir. The choir is very popular with the community." would consider the cost of diem hospital care." Mrs. Cardno said another point in favor of the plan is that in many cases, patients get well more quickly when they are at home with their families and in familiar surroundings. In other business last Friday, council reviewed the operational policy guidelines for Huron's welfare recipients. Welfare Administrator John MacKinnon was on hand to answer council's questions. MacKinnon also reported that the present staff is able to keep up with the workload even though the first three months of operation have been heavy ones. MacKinnon also noted that about 75 potential welfare recipients will be coming off the winter works programs at the first of April, He urged the municipalities to report any jobs which =could- be made available to these. persons: ltraet astir Clinton 4-H club SLEEPY TINKERBELLS BY PATSY PROCTOR The meeting was held at Mrs. Divok's house on Tuesday, March 21. Our meeting was called to order by stating how we were going to trim our sleepwear. Then we discussed the decorations for Achievement Day When Paul Kerrigan took over the BP Oil bulk plant in Clinton in 1966 he started out with a customer list of 350. Now, just six yearts later, Kerrigan Fuels is Servicing approximately 650 homes, farms, businesses and BP gas stations within a 25-mile radius of the town. Paul carries the complete BP line of fuels and lubricants, oil fired water heater' rentals, furnaces and provides free burner maintenance service, He also handles corn oil and Propcorn—BP's system for the preservation of high moisture grain for animal feed. "Service is what every customer wants, and that's our philosophy at all times," says Paul. He is backed up with two experienced drivers, Morris Taylor and Neil Josling. "We take an individual interest in each account and find out exactly the customer's heating requirements." Paul was no newcomer to the business when he arrived in Clinton. His father is BP's bulk agent in Walkerton, and Paul learned the fundamentals of the agency business from him. "I got tired of big city living and left Toronto to start my own business," says Paul, He has just built a Mese in Clinton, where he now lives with his wife, Carol, and two boys, 31/z -year-Old Chris, and Matthew, who is two years old, And a new addition ta the Kerrigan household is due this month, Like all BP agents, Paul has a 24-hetir emergency service during the winter. Paul's territory covers Rev. A. Heultema, the Canadian Cancer Society's Campaign Chairman for Clinton, estimates that over 120,000 Canadians will be out canvassing for the Cancer Society this month in a massive people attack against cancer, During April, the Canadian Cancer Society appeals for funds from the general public, Principally for cancer research. "Right here in Clinton," said Rev. Beukema "our team will consist of about 140 volunteers. These people are giving of their free time to battle against cancer. And although they know many types of cancer can be beaten, they also realize that there is still much work to be done." He went on to outline the importance of the fund-raising campaign in relation to the work of the Cancer Society, (The national objective for 1972 is $7,296,225 and the share of this for the Huron Unit is $18,500. "The money raised this month," he said, "will be used in research, public education and service to patients programs TB outbreaks can happen in the strangest places. At a Tennessee zoo recently a female rhesus monkey, who had been nursing her young infant, died. Tests later showed the mother monkey had had TB. Other tests showed TB had spread to five more primates, including a ringtail monkey who died while being tranquilized for an eyelid tuberculin test. TB testing of zoo personnel showed that four had positive reactions to tuberculin tests, which indicated that TB germs were in their bodies. X-rays showed no lung damage, though. One of the zoo workers who had a negative reaction to the tuberculin tests, however, had a positive reaction when he was retested months later. It can take from two to ten weeks after the infection before a positive reaction shows, TB germs can also lie low in the body and then become activated when the body's defenses are down. As a result of the episode— ;which was reported by Dr. Luther iFredrickson at the Midwest Interprofessional Seminar on Diseases Common to Animals and Man—both animals and personnel at the zoo will be tested for TB two or three times a year. And a glass partition has been placed between the primates and the public. If either animals or people have meets and our title page for our record book.
